$1.50 tip at breakfast

$81,515.50 to go


I was a victim this morning.

A victim of a random act of kindness,
the only other customer in there paid for my meal. I caught him in the parking lot and told him "thank you."

$7 in halves on mixed bag of chips

$81,507.50 to go

cashier started counting them as dollars, and I mentioned they were half dollars. He sort of asked if they were 50 cents. I hope he was not serious.

Well, Fuzzy, I've had several cashiers count them as dollars too. I always inform them.

This past week in our Farmers Markets change and other expenditures I circulated $356 in halves. The number would have been higher if the weather was better and one market was closed because of New Years (boo, hiss). Found a 1980s proof coin in one roll and last week a perfect silver proof - happy to add them to the collection.

$81,136 to go

I'm not trying to turn this into a debate and not trying to be rude at all, but honestly, can't say I blame him for not being pleased...

If you want to make anything on those $10,000 in star notes you bought with his money, I'd suggest you keep it to cash and debit.
